Qapita serves startups, listed companies and funds, but its startup pricing is laid out plainly. Spark is free for companies with up to 25 stakeholders and less than $1M raised, and covers cap table and equity plan management, scenario modeling, a data room and standard reports. Surge costs $1,600 per year for 40 stakeholders plus $40 for each extra, and adds DocuSign for grants and certificates, exercise and surrender workflows, board consents, a custom report builder and onboarding help. Growth costs $3,000 per year for 50 stakeholders, then $60 each, and includes a 409A valuation report, 83(b) forms and Form 3921. Enterprise, on request, adds ASC 718 and IFRS reporting, SSO, custom admin roles and waterfall modeling. That ladder is close to Mantle's in price, though Qapita charges by stakeholder count above each limit. Its reach into listed companies and fund administration also means a startup can stay on the same platform for longer.
